- BACKGROUND: Surgical trauma releases inflammatory mediators such as pro-inflammatory cytokines. In this prospective, controlled, randomized trial we investigated the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and monocyte/macrophage activation in patients scheduled for breast reconstruction after mastectomy. Patients were allocated to one of three surgical procedures, differing in complexity and in the need for implants used for reconstruction. METHODS: Thirty mastectomized women underwent delayed breast reconstruction with the lateral thoracodorsal flap (LTD), the latissimus dorsi flap (LD), or the pedicled transverse rectus abdominis muscle flap (TRAM). Blood samples for TNF, IL-6, IL-8, neopterin, C-reactive protein (CRP), and leukocyte determination were drawn pre-operatively, 24 h, and 2 weeks post-operatively. RESULTS: All groups had significantly elevated IL-6 levels 24 h after surgery. The levels were significantly higher in the TRAM group compared to the LTD and LD groups. IL-8 levels were increased in all groups 2 weeks after surgery (P < 0.05), the LTD (83 pg/mL) and LD (84 pg/mL) group having higher mean IL-8 levels than the TRAM patients (48 pg/mL) (ns). TNF and leukocyte counts were within the normal range. CRP levels were elevated in all groups one day after surgery (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Flap procedures for breast reconstruction stimulate the pro-inflammatory response. IL-6 levels were highest in patients with TRAM operations, being the most extensive procedure studied, whereas the highest IL-8 levels were seen in women with a saline filled silicone implant suggesting immunomodulation by foreign material. Although all three investigated procedures are major operations in the field of plastic surgery, according to the inflammatory response to trauma they should be regarded as minor procedures.
